Embroidered Top – Lucky Brand; Lace Trimmed Shorts – Loft; Sandals – Red Valentino similar here; Panama Hat – J. Crew; Bag – Marc by Marc Jacobs You may have noticed a diminishing amount of posts in the personal style category posted here over the last few months. It’s a mixed bag of reasons why, […]
I’ve never been the type to order a mocha frappucinno from Starbucks, because I’ve always found them to be way too sweet. My husband likes them enough and so I’ve curiously tasted a few sips every now and then, each time hoping I would enjoy it and then understand people’s fascination with them. But each […]
We are back from our trip to New Orleans, where we had a surprisingly awesome time, and I’m slowly getting back into the swing of things. So many friends and acquaintances told us we would hate the city, so we were pleasantly surprised when we discovered we in fact loved it. I’m working on a […]
Our neighbor’s ran into us this morning and asked if we had hosted a wedding on Saturday night. They heard the band, saw the twinkling lights and had passed by while the catering van was packing up, so they assumed the big hoopla had been a wedding. I had to laugh because it very much […]
Two weeks ago, in the midst of the 30 day challenge, I officially celebrated my anniversary of rethinking the way my family and I eat.

I rarely post outfit of the day photos on Instagram either. A while back […]
Things at Babble have been in transition for the last couple of months, and I haven’t been posting as much as I once did, and it has been nice to have a bit more time to dedicate here, and I hope you’ve noticed. Lots of new recipes as well as the prep work that went […]
Having the good fortune of being born in Southern California is one of the many things I am continuously thankful for. While I may have just recently been interested in eating healthier, I have always had a deep love of food, and Southern California has an ever evolving cornucopia of interesting and unique food to […]
I both love and despise food prepping. When done right, it can be a life saver, but when done wrong, it can be a waste of time and money. I’ve had my overzealous times, spending literally all day in the kitchen to prep tons of meals only to watch some of it go to waste. I […]
